The little problem after fresh install BackTrack 5 R3(actually all BT version) is about GRUB,their boot loader OS. Now, it make me difficult(seems to) to wait at front of pc waiting to choose "Windows 7" to boot. If not that,in several seconds,it will boot to BackTrack :(
To make this easier(no more talks) let go to the solution.
Firstly, boot to your BT and make sure you navigate at the desktop screen
Brings up "Terminal" window then type "gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg" this will open the grub content
You can see the whole content and try to get how it work to understand the function and a risks :P
The grub.cfg content is like this(mine)
